Still making good progress towards our first waypoint (74 miles to go)
First flying fish landed on deck overnight.
Just 1 other yacht in sight.
We are running the engine for an hour just now in order to recharge the batteries. First time in 48 hours, which shows that the Rutland wind generator is doing its stuff. (In these temperatures the fridge consumes the most electricity)
Everything else well.
